"So when GD mentioned that he would like to get the new Metroid Prime game for the Wii, I said fine. How are you going to earn the money to buy it?... GD talked it over with his boss (i.e. his dad.) The hubs was no longer his father in this case, but was his boss. And if GD wanted to earn enough money to buy the game, he would have to do something in return. The hubs, er, the boss, told him that he could paint our shed for a set amount of money."The shed painting didn't go well at first and Karen's son almost gave up. It was a hard lesson, for her son and for her, but one that's necessary for kids to truly thrive once they're out in the "real world."
